The president Evelyn
opened the meeting with
entitled Grandmother’s
The Ode, Mary Stewart Collect was
read. Mrs. Tom Lawlor PRO officer
introduced the guest, Constable
John Marshall of the O.P.P. de
tachment in Goderich, who showed
excellent videos on “Crime in the
Home and Crime on the Streets’’.
He said dead bolts should be
used on doors; hinges on the inside
of doors instead of outside and a
peak hole in the door so you can see
who is outside before opening it.
Sliding glass doors should have a
nail in the door frame, while lower
windows should be glued shut.
Have a burglar alarm, leave a light
and radio on in the house and have
a neighbour watch your property
when you’re away. Never lock
valuables in drawers, or in jewell
ery boxes or under mattresses, use
a safe instead. Label articles with a
labeller gun of some kind. He
showed us the best one to use.
Don’t enter your house if you think
someone is inside, go somewhere
and call the O.P.P. Keep an
accurate list of your valuables.
Don’t have too many keys made for
your home and never one hidden
outside. Avoid the non-occupied
look when you are away. Get
someone to pick up your mail also.

cially in dark areas or alleys. Don’t
carry a lot of money with you and
keep your purse close to your body
while shopping. Don’t fight with
anyone if they are after your
money. Let them have it or you
could be seriously injured. Do not
hitch-hike alone. If parking car,
make sure it is in a well lit place.
Constable Marshall gave us some
very good ideas and left pamphlets
for everyone. Kay Lapp thanked
him for coming and showing videos
that explained a lot of other things
about crime etc.
The minutes and correspondence
were read by secretary Kay Lapp
and dealt with, one being a trip to
Grand Bend to see a play in July or
August.
